Read and print string, C

Question

I have a function that reads data from from array, but, when I'd like to print data instead of the name I get some trash: 4273 �нз знзнз. Where I made mistake?

A function, where student_list[i] = "4273 Константинопольский А. А. 4333 знзнз":

int debt() {
  char name[100];
  char test[5];
  int group;
  int exam;

  for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
    sscanf(student_list[i], "%d %[^0-9] %d %s", &group, name, &exam, test);

    printf("%d %s %s\n", group, name, test);
  }
  return 0;
}

I don't think you can use unicode in C like this.

It could be the encoding , you can try using wchar

Because size of char type in memory isn't enough for save unicode characters you should depend on your compiler use other types of data type like wchar or I can offer to you ,It's better use cuchar.h header file and solve your problem
